I just picked up a 2012 RGC off of Craigslist. I knew exactly what I wanted, color options etc. I had to watch for a couple of months but found exactly what I was looking for. They are out there just not as plentiful as the Street Glides.

A few years ago, you could find used Road Glide fairings for not too much money, but now, they're a lot harder to come by. It would be cheaper to convert to a Street Glide. Even so, it's not a project for someone who doesn't like working on their bike.

I'm completely re-wiring my bike. I've got the interconnect harness for the fairing, but a Road King doesn't have the ability to connect to it. So I'm going to strip my RK harness off the bike, and install a main harness from a fairing bike, then I'll be able to plug in the interconnect harness, handlebar wiring, etc. I want all my gauges to work, the handlebar radio controls, etc. As if it came from the factory as a Road Glide.

Not counting paint, I'll have probably 2500 into the conversion. That includes shelling out over 600 bucks for a new main wiring harness. I know guys who have spent that much on a Dead Center detach fairing, so it's al good.
absolutely all good! I can't wait to see how it turns out - maybe post some pics while doing the conversion. I wish I had the technical ability to do stuff like that.

It's only 18 miles away from you. Call them 610-754-0451 OR 1-888-752-8500 PRESS 112
I have not had a chance to look at it in person. I watched the video though and the bike sounds real nice, however I am not in love with the color.
